“I was actually sitting right next to him, honestly, when it happened, and his mom was in the other room, and his face dropped,” said Maine on MTV’s “RapFix Live.” “I just saw it in his face, like, ‘I can’t believe that.’ ”

While Mack Maine, Birdman and others reported that Wayne was doing well, TMZ reported that Wayne was in dire straits, even being prepped for his last rites.

“A lot of blogs and stuff put out some foolishness, but that wasn’t true,” added Mack. “He has four kids. Imagine his daughter hearing that somewhere in school or something like that, so he wasn’t too happy about that.”

Now, Mack Maine says Wayne is happy and safe. “He’s blessed, he’s up, he’s in good spirits, and we’d like to thank all the fans for the prayers. A lot of people reached out and showed love, but Wayne’s at home, he’s relaxing. He’s actually been in good health for a minute. They just wanted to run a few tests on him, that’s why they kept him longer than expected, but he’s been good.”
